Rare and elegant six lobed bowl in blown glass with concave, truncated cone foot.
The bowl is composed by a refined and complex work of half filigree alternated canes (rectilinear and oblique) of avventurina glass and gold colored glass. This kind of glass bowls enriched glass tableware and were used as fruit salad of finger bowls.
Unpublished.
